Is the CBC playoff montage anywhere on the internet anywhere? Can't find it.

Has to be the latter.

As much as I enjoy watching the sharks choke every year in the playoffs and deadshark.jpg, I think this is their year this year.

The woman with the beer is what gets me. Like spearing a guy in the nuts is exactly the sort of thing that would get outrageous cheers from Boston fans.

Gonna break this down to show how terrible Subban is.
Selfish: Staring at the puck and not his teammates.
Classless: Didn't skate back and help Palat.
Attention whore: Fancy way of handling the puck.
Not playing the right way: He's just doing it all wrong.

Yeah what's a defenceman doing behind the other team's net?
John Dunbar
correct about everything
random hockey question, but is the blackhawks logo considered to be racist like the redskins one?
Being classless and not playing the right way, that's what.
I don't think there's been any major issues with it.
I think the issue with the Redskins has more to do with the name rather than the image. It's sort of like if we had the New York Hebes or the San Francisco Chinks.
At least Black Hawk was a real native chief.

Probably because it doesn't say 'redskins'
No. The name and logo both aren't associated really with anything overly insensitive. At least in comparison to the other highlighted examples.
Is it racist...probably?
I'm just not a major proponent who believes all these teams need to change their logos/team name. At the same time, I don't object to anything said on the other side of the spectrum.
*shrugs*
That is the misconception. The team draws ire for both the name and the logo.

Duchene started skating today as expected. Glad to see him progressing.

if Emery can do for Philly what he did for Chicago, Flyers shouldn't worry too much.
It's not the same situation as in 2010

Flyers have a lot to worry about. Despite the nice win the other day. If they can't adjust defensively, the Rangers are just going to use those NHL video game hax all day.
Most of the goals were not really fair goals for the goaltender in both games.

One timers/cross ice passes all day!

if they advance to Round 2 and end up defeating the Penguins... that will be enough for me this year, I will be okay with that.
Beleskey is still out.
Maroon skating on top line with Beast/Good guy. I like him on that line. All those neat behind the net backhand passes will fall right to Perry in front of the net.
Etem and DSP switching off on the MP22/Finnish Flash. I'm going to assume Etem will play as his speed and forecheck will cause many problems for that Dallas D.
I'm pumped. We're doing this Heretic. BELIEVE!

Pat Maroon is doing what I wish Dustin Penner did more often.
Speaking of whom, I guess the Caps can't leverage his playoff magic?

Steven Stamkos will play Game 4 so he can try to delay the elimination
Flyers did adjust defensively in Game 2 after the first period. The Rangers suddenly stopped getting those cross-ice and backdoor chances that Philly had been giving up. Still had some opportunities and good looks, especially in the second, but they were pretty much all straightforward chances where Emery could get set comfortably to make the save.
There's still an obvious vulnerability to be exploited with Emery in net. Just need to work harder for it.
They did, but Rangers were doing the same stuff they were doing in Game 1. You can't get by making adjustments after they pound in 2-3 goals.

David Backes will be out for today's game.
You call yourself a real fan. Real fans post!
Enjoy the game. Live postseason hockey is the best. I'm just bitter that I can buy a $27 ticket to that game right now. That is $100 less than our cheapest regular season game!

Have fun at the game!
Not a must win for Dallas though, best of 7 series after all. I can see Lehtonen stealing the series. Scared of him waking up and shutting out Anaheim today and forever
What the hell am I going to do with a surplus of these?!
Lmao. I'll take two
I'd say it's definitely a must win. Coming back from 0-3 down has only happened like what, 3 or 4 times?
Last one I remember was the Flyers coming back from 3-0 to beat the Bruins a few years ago.
that was some good shit

I always found the Blackhawks to be a respectful tribute to native Americans, the logo isn't cartoonish like the Cleveland Indians and the name isn't offensive like Indians/Red Skins.

I hope he's OK.
As much as I think Keith is an asshole for that comment, it would be amazing if this became a thing and Chicago fans wore these shirts when the Hawks hosted the Blues in future seasons.

It was definitely an asshole thing to say, Backes clearly had his bell rung, he was struggling to get to his feet and seemed pretty out of it.
i think it was more of a joke that backes came after keith instead of seabrook. so keith said it.
obv i have no idea what keith was thinking, but its definitely something i would say if i was being attacked by a concussed person who had the wrong guy.

*shhhh* it's not impossible. but I like Anaheim's chances of winning the series if they get up 3-0.
and yes, I think 3 times. Last time was Flyers/Bruins.
Yeah man. It would truely be amazing.
You sound like kind of a dick.

A large part of me just wants to sleep until Tuesday night
mocking a known dirty player? its trash talk.
i wouldn't blindly attack a player on the opposing team like backes did. can't even attack the right guy. so he gets mocked. but hey, everyone has their own personal opinion on what is right and wrong. backes is just wrong all around to me.

Dude was concussed and probably in fight or flight. I hate backes but come on man. Classless to mock a dude for that even if he's a player like backes and those shirts are just bullshit.
dont get it twisted, i dont support the shirts or the inital hit by seabrook(its not a major to me, it shouldve just been a minor). i think the comment keith made is funny in the context of him saying it. its better than keith retaliating and hitting backes, after backes blindly went after keith.
